  • i still don't get why guys line Ellenson go into the draft. As soon as he's drafted our team is like "he's gotta add muscle hes not NBA ready". Why the F didn't he stay in school and do it there while playing against good competition?

    I have high hopes for him but shit don't make sense to me.
    F#*K OHIO!!!

    • Uh, because he gets paid lots of money, doesn't have to go to class and can practice with better coaches and staff as much as he wants? Not to mention realizing a lifelong dream?

      • The Pistons looked disinterested for the first quarter and a half against Memphis.

        • What an unmitigated disaster this team has been.

          Fucking dumpster fire.

          • The problem is that Jackson will start to find his groove and they'll eventually be a borderline playoff team instead of being complete shit and getting a top 3 draft pick or taking that next step into a top 4 seeded team.

            • This team is getting blown out on a regular basis now....I imagine we see some kind of trade to shake this up by the deadline or its right back to the lottery again.

              • If we end up in the lottery I hope we can land a good guard. SVG made Jackson appear from nothing and Pope is great on the defensive end but they're just not good together. Neither is capable of carrying a teams backcourt.

                • It's really hard to watch Jackson play right now. I think the Pistons made a mistake signing him. Even healthy at his peak last season he couldn't sustain good play for very long.

                  • It's difficult to figure out a players value with the new salary cap / contract situation but Jackson isn't a starting PG.

                    I don't think Pope is a starting SG either tho

                        Drummond hasn't exactly been lighting the world on fire, either.

                        • People are anchored to the initial hype of Drummond. They got a gift of getting him at #9, he sucks defensively and hasn't really improved.

                          • Drummound most certainly isn't elite but he's a damned good big man in the league. He can make 20/10 games look effortless but it appears he won't ever make that next leap to be a great one.

                              The is what like 24? Big men take a lot of time to mature. Let's wait on seeing if he will take that leap or not.

                                I think he is -- but the fit is just really, really poor right now. In fact the entire rotation is just poorly constructed. Like you said, they're a bunch of misfit toys. I agree with that 100%. They're all quality players in their own right, but put them on a team together...and this is what you're going to get.
